Blackgirltopia

Blackgirltopia is a sci-fi comedy musical that focuses on an ensemble cast of Black women and non-binary folks living and working in the small college town of Applegate College a year after an apocalypse occurs that has disappeared all men from Earth. On a task to save the Womens Studies department from being terminated, the protagonist Faith and her friends struggle to navigate a world that neglects the oppressions many thought disappeared with the patriarchy, while an unexpected visitor from a planet of all Black women arrives and tries to help Earth from being completely destroyed.

Emerging Artists returns with their one-of-a-kind festival. Visit the theater any evening during this three-week event, and you'll find yourself transported in a number of surprising ways: by a single performer embodying a whole host of characters; by a more experimental theater piece "done differently" that challenges and delights; by a cozy two-person show exploring relationships; or perhaps by a bouncy new musical that will have you humming. Emerging Artists has always been about new works, new talents, new voices. That's never been more evident than now.

NO REFUNDS will be granted.
